rsync copying everything

[NathanZachary]

Hello all,

I have a strange problem that I haven't been able to figure out. On a single host, I have two NFS shares mounted. I realised that if I do an rsync between those two mounted NFS shares (which I would assume then appear local), rsync wants to copy everything (not just the changed files). As both shares are more than 5 TiB, that's not really feasible. Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Nathan Zachary

Use -i, possibly repeatedly, to ask rsync to explain itself. The output is a bit cryptic, but the man page says what the different flags mean.
